Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of petrochemical industry, and in particular to a drainage aid for petroleum fracturing and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] In oilfield fracturing and acidizing operations, the well fluid must be quickly and thoroughly discharged from the ground after the operation is completed so as not to cause secondary pollution to the formation and achieve the purpose of increasing production and injection. However, the residual liquid after the operation is often unable to be completely discharged due to the high surface tension. The addition of drainage aids can effectively reduce the surface tension and increase the interfacial activity, which is conducive to the timely return of the well fluid. In addition, adding drainage aids to the well fluid can effectively reduce the interfacial tension, which is conducive to the smooth injection of the well fluid. Usually, the drainage aid is added with various surfactants, which can reduce the surface tension of the well fluid or increase the wetting properties of the well fluid, so as to facilitate the timely return of the well fluid. In practical applications, a variety of additives need to be added to the well fluid. In addition to the drainage aid, a bactericide needs to be added to facilitate the disinfection of various microorganisms in the well to cope with the growth of various microorganisms in a complex environment. This requires the staff to add different additives to the well fluid in multiple times or compound them according to the proportion, which increases the cumbersomeness of the staff's operation. Therefore, developing a product that can act as both a drainage aid and a well fluid sterilizer can reduce the types of additives used in the oil and gas production process, thereby reducing the workload of staff.
